User categories
I noticed you put yourself in a couple of categories. By default, articles (including user pages) are sorted by their full name. Your user page has the name User:Veratien, so you go under "U". If you want to go under "V" as you should, add a piped string in the link consisting of just your User name. For instance, your link [[Category:Wikipedian musicians]] becomes [[Category:Wikipedian musicians|Veratien]]. That tells it to sort on "Veratien". Ddawson 16:21, 9 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Play piano *AND* Flute
I can manage to play the piano and harmonica (with a neck holder), but I can't imagine playing the piano and flute. Maybe a .gif of how you manage that. --Swirsky

Hi, I've created a LGBT noticeboard for wikipedians to post issues and concerns. Please take a look. Thanks. -- Samuel Wantman 08:16, 8 May 2005 (UTC)
Fleet River / River Fleet
Hi... I saw your edit concerning the "Fleet River" on the US/UK English article. I figured there might be an article on the river, and was checking to see if I could add a wikilink. It turns out that if you go to Fleet River you see the "official" name of the article is River Fleet. I don't know anything about it, so maybe you can clarify? Should the River Fleet article be renamed? Is popular use unified or divided on what to call it? If there is a national agency on place names, what do they say? Thanks! -- Coneslayer 19:23, 2005 August 5 (UTC)
- Hiya. Officially it's called the River fleet. I have never, however, actually heard anyone from London call it that. :p Most people outside of Central London don't even know it exists, heh. :p --Veratien 19:30, 5 August 2005 (UTC)
In appreciation of your creation of this template, I award you one! -- Essjay · Talk 23:40, August 6, 2005 (UTC)
- Hehe, I feel speshul. :D --Veratien 00:14, 7 August 2005 (UTC)
Cobo
I've approved your bot for one month testing. Whenever you need to run your bot for testing, you should have it running for a full month, that way to work out whatever kinks it may have. I think your bot is a wonderful idea. If you get stuck, looking for additional ideas, or want a sounding board, just leave a note on my talk page. Best wishes. --AllyUnion (talk) 06:32, 2 September 2005 (UTC)
RE: The Lloyd-Webber crappie
In what way is my comment invalid? The material on the Lloyd-Webber crappie should have its own page, like the rest of his corpus.--62.255.232.20 02:30, 10 April 2006 (UTC)
- It added nothing to the discussion and it was in block caps. --Veratien 02:34, 10 April 2006 (UTC)
- What's wrong with block capitals? It added a request to the discussion. What's unreasonable about suggesting that the Lloyd-Webber crappie get a seperate article? If you're such a L-W fan, why don't you write it? --62.255.232.20 18:36, 9 April 2006 (UTC)
Request for a recording
I would like to place a request for a recording of the Ohio Wesleyan University page. Who can I turn to? Thank you! WikiprojectOWU 03:48, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
- I'm currently overdue on the three articles I earmarked, however, if I've got time, I'll do a recording for you. :) --Veratien 10:35, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
Article Exclusion: List of Fumblerules
Hiya,
Can you please exclude List of Fumblerules from your bot's search list? The article contains deliberate examples of incorrect grammar which your bot keeps 'correcting'.
Thanks,
--Veratien 12:56, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
- No problem. —METS501 (talk) 13:00, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
Pier Gerlofs Donia
Veratien, do you care to help me with a spoken version of the article Pier Gerlofs Donia? I would be very glad when you'd record it fo me, or help me to do it. I'm trying to help the spoken wiki, and I'd like to start with this article; it should be interesting to listen... Because the man is a very interesting figure; he has links to his page all across wikipedia, and has a wiki-commons-section and wikiquote-article; he was a man of little words, and great deeds, but the things he said, became graet quotations later. Consider it, and read the article before okay? I'll await your answer, greetings, from -)-(-H- (|-|) -O-)-(- 16:47, 6 May 2007 (UTC)
